Brexit arguments do not stackup. Its all hot air. Why they even holding a Ref if you read this!
Steve Peers, Professor of EU law, and one of the key experts consulted by, amongst others, Fullfact and the BBC, to verify claims made by both sides throughout the referendum, has carefully dissected the fibs and scaremongering of the leave campaign; from Turkey joining, to us all being pressed into an EU army.
He points out in every single case the UK has control, either by an opt-out or a veto. In other words, none of these things can happen without the British government’s consent. Nearly all of them would also need our Parliament’s consent. And the large majority – all the fundamental possible changes to the EU that many are concerned about – would actually need the consent of the British public in another referendum.
Share this widely - with two weeks to go, it certainly does no harm to direct that one stubborn person you know, who's adamant they've already made up their mind, to give this a read:
a) The UK cannot be required to join an EU army without consent of the UK government, parliament and public;
b) Treaty amendments require the consent of the UK government and parliament, and (if there’s any transfer of powers) the public;
c) Accession of new Member States requires the consent of the UK government and parliament; it is a long way off for Turkey in particular and if it ever happens, will be subject to long periods of transition for workers to be admitted;
d) The UK has a veto on tax issues; the UK government, parliament, and public would have to consent to dropping it;
e) The UK has an opt-out from EU law on asylum, non-EU migration and criminal law; the UK government and parliament would have to consent to dropping it, and the public would have to agree to join Schengen or the European Public Prosecutor;
f) The UK has an opt out from the single currency and other related issues, and could only join after the consent of the UK government, parliament and public;
g) The UK has a veto over the basic EU budget revenue and spending rules, including the UK budget rebate; the veto could only be dropped with the consent of the UK government, parliament and public.
We don't need to 'take back control'. We're already in control.
